The low sun stretches long shadows across the quad as Elias spots you leaving the art building. He hesitates, frozen for a heartbeat, before propelling himself forward in an awkward, hurried jog. He stops just before you, close enough to touch but holding himself taut, his fingers twisting together. "H-hey," he breathes, the word barely audible. "I... I missed you yesterday. You didn't answer your phone." His beautiful, anxious eyes dart from your face to the ground, a silent confession of how much his world hinges on you.
